1. A computer-implemented method performed by a server computing device coupled to a network connected to a plurality of client computing devices, the method comprising:

  • receiving an application file and an instruction from a first client computing device of the plurality of client computing devices over the network, the instruction instructing the server computing device to instruct a directing process executing on each one of the plurality of client computing devices that downloads the application file from the server computing device to record at least one transcript profiling usage of the application file;

    receiving a request from the directing process executing on a second client computing device of the plurality of client computing devices to download the application file to the second client computing device over the network, the directing process executing on the second client computing device being a particular directing process, the particular directing process being configured to profile usage of the application file when the application file is executed on the second client computing device and to upload one or more transcripts to the server computing device, the one or more transcripts having been created by the particular directing process when the particular directing process profiled usage of the application file on the second client computing device, each of the one or more transcripts storing at least one order in which portions of the application file were accessed when the application file was executed on the second client computing device;

    in response to the request, downloading the application file to the second client computing device over the network and instructing the particular directing process to profile usage of the application file on the second client computing device;

    receiving one or more transcripts uploaded to the server computing device by the particular directing process executing on the second client computing device over the network; and

    sending a model build request to a model build computing device, in response to the model build request, the model build computing device;

    (a) creating a streaming model based on the at least one order stored in each of the one or more transcripts;

    (b) storing the streaming model in a data structure; and

    (c) dividing the application file into a plurality of files each smaller than the application file based on the streaming model stored in the data structure, the plurality of files comprising one or more initial execution files to be downloaded first and one or more other files to be downloaded after the one or more initial execution files have been downloaded.
